trouble focusing changing focus still doesn’t appear to be working. When we try to increase focus on DFMTCS it doesn’t go any higher than 2236. We tried the paddle but that only goes up to 2349 before not allowing it to increase any further. When we exit DFMTCS the focus gets reset back to 2050 which is where it was before. The Observing plan tonight recommends 2617.8 so we can’t really get it anywhere near that.
